Hi.

(What is the better language to use?)
which is the easiest to learn?
are there any big differences in the possibilities in this languages?
As C# is a C language it seems logical for me that it's more powerful than VB.Net which is a Basic language, is this corect?


more questions about this will probably come if I get some answers..

Thank you

-Simen

Well I would say that C# is the best language to learn because thats what lots of things are coded in and it does have a performance advantage over Visual Basic.NET.

However, VB.NET is still a powerful language and you will find it a LOT easier to learn if you have some experiance with ASP (vbscript) or Visual Basic 6.0.

It is up to you, there may be a few more possibilitys in C# but they are both extremely powerful and easy to use languages.

If I learn ASP.Net with C# first, would it be hard to learn VB.Net later? The best would of course be to know both languages

I started by learning VB.NET because I had ASP3.0 and Visual Basic experiance.... Recently I have been trying to use C# as my main language and it is quite easy to change... I am sure you could do it the other way around.

I'm starting in C# now, that's because I'm getting more and more familiar with the C way of programming, and lots of samples are written in C#

I don't like the C style with lowercase letters and brackets everywhere, but I think maybe it's a wise choice..

Personally I prefer to use VB.NET and I have started learning that. I  find it easier to use than C#.  Its really a tough choice to make though. I have been trying to work it out in my head which is the best solution. I think that most compnies will stick with c# especially if they have had C++ programmers. I think that majority of the ASP.NET stuff I have seen out there is done in C#... Anyway I think the important thing is that its a matter of personal choice. If you prefer VB.NET then use that, otherwise use C#. Well at least thats the way I see it.. for what its worth....
